You would be looking for sql_trace and timed_statistics.
If you set timed_statistics = true in you init$ORACLE_SID.ora file and bounce the instance, you can in sql*plus (or any 3gl/4gl/etc) issue something like:
SQL> alter session set sql_trace=true;
Session altered.
SQL> select count(*) from scott.emp, scott.dept 2 where emp.deptno = dept.deptno and dept.loc like 'C%';
COUNT(*)
6
SQL> exit
Then, run tkprof on the resulting trace file to get a listing like:
call count cpu elapsed disk query current rows ------- ------ -------- ---------- ---------- ---------- ---------- ----------
Parse 1 0.15 0.15 2 0 2 0 Execute 1 0.00 0.00 0 0 0 0 Fetch 1 0.00 0.01 3 34 2 1 ------- ------ -------- ---------- ---------- ---------- ---------- ---------- total 3 0.15 0.16 5 34 4 1
Misses in library cache during parse: 1
Optimizer goal: CHOOSE
Parsing user id: 449 (TKYTE)
Rows Execution Plan
------- --------------------------------------------------- 0 SELECT STATEMENT GOAL: CHOOSE 0 SORT (AGGREGATE) 6 NESTED LOOPS 11 TABLE ACCESS (FULL) OF 'EMP' 11 TABLE ACCESS (BY ROWID) OF 'DEPT' 11 INDEX (UNIQUE SCAN) OF 'SYS_C0023259' (UNIQUE) --------------------------------------------------------------------------
This will work for pl/sql and sql. Read up on sql_trace and tkprof in the applications developer guide (i think thats where tkprof is documented).
You want timed_statistics on to get the cpu and elapsed times in the report. you could set sql_trace on at the instance level but I prefer to do it session by session and selectively trace....
